Diving right in...

Flight 1: Phoenix -> San Francisco (8 AM NOV 1)
Flight 2: San Francisco -> Tokyo
Flight 3: Tokyo -> Osaka (6 PM Nov 2)















Next, the Monorail to Yamada Station... then the Osaka Metro to Nipponbashi Station on the Sakaisuji Line. This took us a little longer than planned so the Apartment Manager for the Melon Apartment that we were supposed to meet with had already went home. No cash, no place to stay, no phones, and no patience left... + 3 heavy bags each. Luckily the Dotonbori area is very lively and we were able to find a hotel. The hotel was very traditional and the owners were very nice. I had already relaxed and put on my Yukata (provided by the hotel) when Scott found out that the place was cash only. So he braved the elements and found an ATM, while I set up the futon pads for bedtime.




































The next day's mission would be to call the Apartment Manager and try to meet up.
